RE :”This will NEVER go away unless it is resolved”
I dont care if it goes away, so far it’s not well known. I am just saying Bush vs Gore was over a very close election 2000 and it caused endless complaints of over-ruling the public. Obama had a much larger win so Supreme Court will not want to over-rule a much larger electoral win. And what would they possibly do to remedy it? Appoint McCain? Re-election without Obama? Can you imagine a 5-4 ruling along party lines? Not a pretty situation, imaginary as it is.
Why would the Supreme Court be concerned with electoral margins?
I thought the court's responsibilities had to do with the letter of the law.
